Greetings to all…

Yes, it's August...a new month and time for a new project…this one is my Little Glitter House interpretation of an offering that was on eBay a while back…

There’s nothing unusual about the building methods, finishes or other details that haven’t been covered many times before…so…just go right to the PDFs below the picture of mine in raw cardboard and get started…

I will post a picture of the of my completed bungalow later…and I know of one forum member who will be posting pictures of her version of the bungalow very soon!…

Howard...

I love this house!! The fence is one I had on hand from Pete, I just trimmed away some of the bottom so it would be a bit shorter. I wanted to trim my tree with red beads, but didn't have any the right size so I improvised. I added small drops of white glue and sprinkled red glitter. It was really easy and I liked the effect. I hope you can make them out in my picture.

Howard, Lynn -

Terrific houses both. Thanks for the plans and the tree-trim pointer.
